Active Movement DVD

SPARC has developed a series of resources that assist with providing activity ideas on how to get 0-5 year olds participating in quality movement experiences. Endorsed by the Royal New Zealand Plunket Society, GymSports NZ, Barnardos, the Ministry of Health, the National Heart Foundation, the Cancer Society, and Swimming NZ - the Active Movement resources show you how easy it is to incorporate quality physical activity into your children's lives right now - from balancing to walking, tummy time to climbing.
